Abstract

The present disclosure provides an exhaust component, a box, a battery, and an electric device. The exhaust component includes a main body part and a one-way guiding part. The main body part is therein provided with an exhaust chamber, and the main body part is provided with a first surface, wherein the first surface is provided with ventilation holes communicating with the exhaust chamber. The one-way guiding part is arranged on the main body part. The one-way guiding part is configured to allow emissions released by the pressure relief mechanism of the battery cell to enter the exhaust chamber through the ventilation holes and is also configured to prevent the emissions within the exhaust chamber from being discharged through the ventilation holes.

         3 . The exhaust component according to  claim 2 , wherein the one-way guiding part is a one-way valve arranged within the ventilation holes. 
     
     
         4 . The exhaust component according to  claim 2 , wherein along the first direction, the main body part includes two first surfaces opposite each other, and both first surfaces include with the ventilation holes. 
     
     
         5 . The exhaust component according to  claim 2 , wherein the first surface is a surface having a largest area among outer surfaces of the main body part. 
     
     
         6 . The exhaust component according to  claim 2 , wherein the main body part further includes a medium channel, wherein the medium channel and the exhaust chamber are not in communication with each other, and the medium channel is configured to accommodate a refrigerant to manage a temperature of the battery cell. 
     
     
         7 . The exhaust component according to  claim 2 , wherein the one-way guiding part covers the ventilation holes and the one-way guiding part is configured to detach from the main body part under an impact of the emissions released by the pressure relief mechanism so as to open the ventilation holes. 
     
     
         8 . The exhaust component according to  claim 7 , wherein along the first direction, the main body part includes two first surfaces opposite each other, and both first surfaces include with the ventilation holes. 
     
     
         9 . The exhaust component according to  claim 7 , wherein the one-way guiding part is a plate-like structure that covers the ventilation holes. 
     
     
         10 . The exhaust component according to  claim 9 , wherein the ventilation holes penetrate a cavity wall surface of the exhaust chamber, and the one-way guiding part is connected to the cavity wall surface of the exhaust chamber. 
     
     
         11 . The exhaust component according to  claim 7 , wherein the ventilation holes penetrate a cavity wall surface of the exhaust chamber, and the one-way guiding part is connected to the cavity wall surface of the exhaust chamber. 
     
     
         12 . The exhaust component according to  claim 11 , wherein the cavity wall surface of the exhaust chamber includes a receiving groove, wherein the receiving groove communicates with the ventilation holes and the exhaust chamber; and at least a portion of the one-way guiding part is accommodated within the receiving groove.
